What is a free way to get rid of unwanted viruses?

3280>When I open up my internet explorer, an anti virus comes up instead of my original emachines home page.
Reply:AVG Free is the best anti-virus out there right now. Norton is total junk, uses up a lot of system resources and you have to pay for it. Avast is also a good free anti-virus. You can download AVG from the link below. There is absolutely no spyware and it is completely free.

an btw AVG isnt NEAR the best, just the best FREE anti virus
Reply:AVG is good, but to change your web page back from the anti virus webpage. click on tools drop down option and select internet options and change your homepage address to your prefered website
Reply:Usually if your homepage keeps changing to a fixed one then you are infected with an ad ware or spyware. Maybe if you post the name of the homepage that opens I can help you more.
Reply:I use Avast anti virus... its free and it updates it self.. www.avast.com
Reply:Anti-viruses that are free are normally good aswell as buying them and it i also free.

Reply:i keep getting spywares and unwanted pop ups on mines too.
Reply:most virus are spread through IE. IE is not a safe browser. you should use a more secure browser to protect your PC from virus.





i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can block any any popup and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE browser. as you know, most of virus spread throught internet and webpage.





besides, firefox is much smaller than IE, so it run faster than IE.





download firefox for free, Just have a try:
